CERN Technical Student Selection Experience

I was miraculously selected as a #TechnicalStudent at #CERN in Geneva, #Switzerland for a 14 month internship. This is a short video that covers the important dates during the selection procedure, the forms, questions, information about my #resume and #letterOfReccomendations etc.

If you have any other questions / video requests please let me know down in the comments section below and I'll try my best to answer them to the best of my capability.

When I think of CERN my mind just goes back to the Dan Brown novels I loved reading, gives me a very futuristic sci-fi vibe lol. Must have been such an amazing experience for you, thank you for sharing this! I am a first year CS student and I think even if for just a summer, I would love to get some experience in a foreign country.

Hi, I just got a notification about being selected for a video interview for the technical student program. This is the computer based on right, the one in which questions are flashed and we have to answer them. In the mail, I was asked this:
To prepare for this interview, we will be asking you a few questions, broadly about:

yourself,
a project you’re proud of and why,
your technical/administrative strengths,
your motivation as well as what your ideal work environment looks like and what you hope to gain from this experience.

firstly, im shocked that i even got shortlisted(?) im panicking and don't know how to prepare for these basic questions. i dont really have a 100% complete project either

[jawadhaider]

i will wait for the video for your research intern in Auckland

[deanprickle]

Thanks a lot for this amazing video Anish...I've been following you for quite a while now....Just wanted to ask how the questions on SONRU were like...more inclined towards the technical side or general questions...?

Hi! Thank you for this video!
This really motivated me. At present, I'm at the start of my 6th Semester. So I had given a contract of just 4 months to the technical internship since I will have to manage my academics too. But seeing your video I don't mind getting a year break. So is it possible to extend the contract till 12-14 months if at all I'm selected?

Hey, Sometimes texting for a friend can bring so many enriching stories. Started to watch it just for a while and ended up finishing your rant. xD.... Amazing story telling😇

[Veenaali]

Hello Mr. Anish, today i appeared in on-demand video interview. There were 5 questions and 2 minutes were for everyone questions recording. I was bit hastitate because the time was limited and i was thinking different aspects of projects i worked on. Now im worried about results.

[divyareddy]

Hi anish!! thank you!!! I was planning on applying for openlab summer programme this year, I am at pretty much same sitation as you were at the time, I am only good at dsa in c++ lol, no development experince. But i do have some research experince and I am a MITACS scholar too :) I just wanted to know if you faced any issues while starting off at CERN with regard to technical knowledge, because people I've seen who get selected have gigantic CVs, was it hard to keep up?

[muneerahmed]

Great video man..Are you currently doing a full time job at CERN? If yes is it bit easier to have one if you had participated in student training program?

[m.arslanzulfiqar]

Hey, I hope you are doing well. I saw your videos which are so informative. I have a question like what kind of questions they asked in Web interview? Thanks in advance,

[_ronitkumar]

What did they asked in second interview from FAP..?
